LINK GRABBER on Chrome? #2023

I do not work for VDH. I'm just another user. Link Grabber? I've never heard of such a thing. That's not a feature of VDH. That may be a feature of some other software product whose name may look something like Video Download Helper. But VDH has no such feature. In a case like yours, I would take this approach. Open a browser tab on a page where there is a video to download & use VDH to download it. I recommend you use the VDH Now go to your next web page where there's something you want to download. I suspect it might be simplest to make this second web page a new tab in the same browser window as the first item. Download this one with VDH & leave the page open. Open however many pages as necessary & download all your content with VDH. After all your downloads complete, go through each of your web pages one by one & find the video you downloaded from that page. Verify that you have the content you want. By verify, I mean load the video into your favorite media player (VLC for example) & skim the video. Make sure it's all there, video & audio, just the way you want. Once you verify the download was successful, you can close that web page. Do not trust VDH's notification that the download completed successfully. The only valid proof that a video got downloaded is to play it, at least sampling it at intervals. Is this tedious? Time consuming? Sure. But do you want that content or don't you? Be meticulous, fastidious. Don't rely on VDH. Rely on yourself. If this stuff is at all important to you, you'll take my advice. |

In other words: the tool in question (‘link grabber’) does not exist…
From what I could understand in your response, I’ll have to continue to
download video per video individually without a function that I read could
solve the problem described in this forum.
Sadly, VDH is a waste of time in this sense…
So disappointing, and frustrating to hear that!
Yours,
Samuel

Link Grabber? I've never heard of such a thing. That's not a feature of

In a case like yours, I would take this approach. Open a browser tab on a
page where there is a video to download & use VDH to download it. I
recommend you use the VDH Download As function, not the Download
function. LEAVE THAT WEB PAGE OPEN. VDH does allow you to close a web page
as soon as you successfully launch a download but before it completes. DO
NOT take advantage of this feature. Leave the web page open.
Now go to your next web page where there's something you want to download.
I suspect it might be simplest to make this second web page a new tab in
the same browser window as the first item. Download this one with VDH &
leave the page open.

Your question
LINK GRABBER TOOL (on Chrome)
How should I proceed to download several links/videos at once from an educational content website with many isolated videos/classes not organized as a playlist? I find myself saving each item (out of a 'million classes'), and it has become the download process quite uneffective...
I read I could download several videos directly to my PC folder by using Videodownloadhelper tool "LINK GRABBER". However, I can't see it available on Chrome.
